2005:32e Safety and Radiation Protection at Swedish Nuclear Power Plants 2004
The safety philosophy upon which the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate’s (SKI) supervisory and regulatory activities are based assume that multiple physical barriers will exist and that a plant-specific defence-in-depth approach will be implemented at each plant. The physical barriers are situated between the radioactive material and the plant personnel and surroundings. In the case of...

2005:61 Review and Assessment of SCC Experiments with RPV Steels in Oskarshamn 2 and 3 (ABB Report SBR 99-020)
Although the extent of cracking was rather surprising for a bolt-loaded specimen, the average stress corrosion crack growth rate of 0.5 mm/year over the five-year testing period does not represent an immediate concern. The overwhelming part of crack growth can have occurred during a 20 day chloride transient during the third year of exposure because of a condenser leakage after an outage. The...

2012:70 Process Parameters Affecting Inhomogeneity of Material Microstructure
There’s been a tremendous change in the number, product types, locations, equipment, and manufacturing capabilities of stainless steel producers from the late 1960’s to present. This reconfiguration of the global steel industry occurred between the early 1970’s to the mid 1980’s and continues today. These changes have produced a loss in manufacturing flexibility, due to the inherent...

2008:29e Safety and Radiation Protection at Swedish Nuclear Power Plants 2007
The safety level of the plants is maintained at an acceptable level. SKI has in its regulatory supervision not found any known deficiencies in the barriers which could result in release of radioactive substances in excess of the permitted levels. SKI considers that improvements have been implemented during the year in the management, control and following up of safety work at the plants. In...

2007:37 Identification of Common Cause Initiating Events Using the NEA IRS Database
The study carried out within the framework of this project is a continuation of work conducted for SKI in 1998 on the identification of Common Cause Initiators based on operational events documented in the NEA Incident Reporting System (IRS). This project covered the events reported in the IRS database with the incident date in the period of 1980- 01-01 – 2006-11-15. The events of highest...
